Mainly football and a bit of politics #saintsfc
Not getting too carried away by one good performance, it'll make things easier when the wheels come off and it all goes to shit again. I've become far too skeptical at the prospect of hope 🤣 #SaintsFC

What do you even say after that? Dreadful result, again. Still unlucky with injuries and illness but in-game decisions were baffling. Part of me wants to give him time, but I fear he's lost the majority of fans and, in that case, the writing is on the wall. The question is, who/what next? #SaintsFC

A line-up straight out of a tombola but I think we need an open mind today. None of us know what the best line-up is. I've agreed with every line-up this season and we've been pretty rubbish, add to that Stewart's injury news, I'm happy to try something a bit different #SaintsFC

I struggle not to be cynical when it comes to Podačar and his domination of cycling. All too good to be true

Im not a reactionary fan, not calling for anyone's head or anything silly, I get that it all takes time, but its still disappointing & frustrating not to see greener shoots of recovery going into a run of winnable games where we could really build a head of steam. Now 2wks to stew over it #SaintsFC

Good team selection again, Fellows took a knock in training but I'm quite happy to see Fraser return to the starting line-up. Dropping Azaz sends a healthy message that if you don't perform, you lose your place, regardless of your price tag #SaintsFC

£100k+ per week? Not a chance #SaintsFC
🚨 Southampton are planning to offer West Ham United midfielder James Ward-Prowse the chance to return to St Mary's in January.

Strong moment as Keir Starmer calls out the racism we’ve seen in recent weeks and months:
"Labour is proud of Britain's flags but if they are painted alongside graffiti telling a Chinese takeaway owner to 'go home', that's not pride - it's racism."

Part of me thinks this sounds a lovely idea

Much better. Missed 2 sitters in the 1st half which cost us. Took the lead in a period where Boro were starting to get a foothold and felt Downes was needed just to wrestle back momentum in the middle, nobody would have moaned if we'd shut up shop for the last 30mins and won 1-0. Onwards #SaintsFC

Excellent performance, wanted a reaction and got it. I'd start the same team and same formation at the weekend. Only negative (aside for the stupid error for the first goal) was another no show from Damion 'Sékou Mara' Downs, he's not up to it at this level #SaintsFC

Here we go again, its the hope that kills you. Strong line-up, slightly surprised Downs is ahead of Stewart but he deserves a chance #SaintsFC

Really insightful, thanks for sharing #SaintsFC
Sadly Southampton feel like a run-of-the-mill Champ side now, so need big improvement (hopefully signings can bed in)
A result of a gradual drop in everyone's expectations. A long-time PL club is now this - data-led, clever recruitment doesn't produce those FBs, for example

"You can take the RM out of the football club but you can't take the RM out of the players" is dreadful analysis of yesterday - under RM we had midfield movement to give the CBs an out ball, we absolutely did not lump it long to tiny strikers #SaintsFC @gspnsouthampton.bsky.social

Surprised how giddy Pompey are with their point. They were well organised but pretty limited tbh. I thought #SaintsFC were very disappointing but it seems that was Pompey on a good day, and to only draw... 🤷🏻♂️ Mousinho's post match chat all pretty silly too. Moral victories aren't a thing

Massively missing a focal point in attack - need a big centre forward who is proven at this level. Crossing to tiny strikers isn't the way. Midfield balance isn't right, too big a gap between the back 6 and the front 4. And yes, a clean sheet but how Pompey didn't score I will never know #SaintsFC
